"Attack!" At Tyler's command, the other seven King Realm experts seized the brief opening created by Cyrus's all-out strike and charged forward. Their bodies radiated brilliant spiritual energy as they unleashed their formidable powers, determined to subdue Cyrus and Lord Hades.An elderly man with white hair moved his hands in a blur, chanting under his breath. In an instant, countless ice shards erupted from the ground like sharp spears, shooting toward Cyrus with incredible speed. The shards gleamed with a chilling light, appearing especially menacing under the moonlight as they froze the air in their path.At the same time, a middle-aged King Realm fighter in red robes conjured a blazing flame between his hands. Unlike ordinary fire, this flame burned an eerie purple, exuding extreme heat that distorted the surrounding space. With a loud shout, he hurled the flame toward Cyrus. It roared like a feral fire beast, carrying a destructive force that threatened to consume C

With a muffled "thud," the protective shield in front of Tyler, which had been struggling to hold on, finally failed to withstand the combined assault of Cyrus and Sarah's immense power. It shattered instantly, dispersing into countless fragments of spiritual energy that dissolved into the air. The powerful backlash from the shield's destruction hit Tyler like a massive tidal wave, slamming into him with overwhelming force.Tyler's entire body was flung backward uncontrollably like a puppet on a broken string. He traced a long arc through the air before crashing heavily onto the ground not far away, kicking up a cloud of dust. A mouthful of blood spewed violently from his lips, painting a crimson streak in the air before staining the ground in front of him.At this moment, Tyler was in a pitiful state. His hair was disheveled, falling messily across his face, and blood still lingered at the corner of his mouth. Yet, despite his battered appearance, there was still a trace

"Girls, I brought you something delicious!" Josephine called out with a gentle smile, her voice cheerful as she placed the food she was carrying one by one on the table in the hall. The delicate pastries, fresh fruits, and various specialty snacks instantly filled the air with an enticing aroma."Josephine, you're the best!" The Shadow Guards, hearing her voice, quickly gathered from all directions. Their eyes lit up with surprise, their faces beaming with joyful smiles. Usually, they were focused on their tasks and rarely had the chance to enjoy such treats. Josephine's thoughtful gesture made them feel a rare sense of familial warmth."Don't be shy, everyone. Dig in. You've been working so hard; you deserve to treat yourselves," Josephine said as she handed out the food to the Shadow Guards. Seeing their happy expressions, she felt her own fatigue lighten considerably."Josephine, how was work today? Was it tiring?" Seven asked with concern."It was okay, just

"Hello, Mr. Davis. My name is Cyrus Parker. I'm a new student here," Cyrus said calmly as though he hadn't noticed the unusual atmosphere in the room. His tone was steady and unbothered."So, you're Cyrus. Nice to meet you!" Stephen Davis's angry expression vanished instantly upon hearing Cyrus's name, replaced by a fawning demeanor. Just yesterday, the mayor personally called him and instructed him to take good care of Cyrus. With that in mind, Stephen dared not show even the slightest neglect toward him."Oh, Cyrus, I'm sorry... Please have a seat." Stephen quickly stood up, enthusiastically inviting Cyrus to take a seat. He even poured a glass of water for Cyrus.Cyrus gave a slight nod and sat down. His cold gaze swept over Stephen, and a faint sense of disdain for Stephen's behavior arose in his heart."Cyrus, this is Ms. Sandra Morgan, who will be your math teacher," Stephen said, introducing the female teacher beside him with a sycophantic smile. After fin

"How dare Rachel make my boyfriend stand here?" Anna said. Without hesitation, she walked back into the classroom with an undeniable air of confidence. She looked at Rachel and said, "Ms. Wilson, could you please let my boyfriend return to his seat?"Anna's words were like a bomb going off in the classroom. The students erupted into chatter, their faces full of shock. They could hardly believe their ears. Cyrus, the guy who had just arrived and was even punished to stand at the back of the room, was suddenly revealed to be Anna's boyfriend. The news was so shocking that it was difficult for everyone to process.Even Maura couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise. In her impression, Anna had always been distant and cold, keeping everyone at arm's length. She rarely interacted with male teachers, let alone had a boyfriend. And now, right in front of the entire class, she declared Cyrus as her boyfriend. It was simply unbelievable."What?" Rachel was even more stunne
